How we rank Study Tubers

What is Student Hut Study Tubers

Student Hut Study Tubers is the only free to use social media benchmarking software dedicated to student study tubers.

A comprehensive list didn’t exist, so we built it for you. Then, the same experts behind Edurank created a unique algorithm to rank study tubers by engagement.

The Methodology

What exactly is the Study Tuber score?

Student Hut Study Tubers is the only social media measurement tool that covers all major social media platforms and has been created and designed specifically for the student audience. Study Tuber scores are updated monthly with the previous month’s data being displayed.

Where do we get the data for Study Tubers?

We take data integrity very seriously and only use the best quality sources for Study Tubers. Where possible we always take data directly from the source. For example, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube data is taken directly from the individual’s profile pages on the respective platforms.

How does the Study Tuber rank work?

To rank how successful our Study Tubers are across social media we have created a unique algorithm that uses relevant metrics and weightings that focus on influence.

Study Tuber Rank takes data directly from four of the main social media platforms: Instagram, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook and analyses:

Follower size

Follower growth

Number of posts/videos

Engagements/views per follower

Engagements/views per post/video

Shares/retweets.

Our algorithm weighs each of these metrics in accordance with their impact on how influential someone is: e.g. their follower size having more impact than the number of retweets.

Each Study Tuber's score is then normalised against every other Study Tuber in its category. The scores for each platform range from 0 (no profile exists), to 100 (top score).

The most influential person on each platform will get a score of 100, we then take an average of the scores they achieve for each platform they are active on to provide them with an overall rank.

This is Student Hut Study Tuber Rank.

Q: Why doesn’t Snapchat or Tik Tok appear on the rank?

At the moment neither Snapchat nor Tik Tok have an open API, meaning we can’t simply plug in our software to analyse the data. As and when this changes, we will!
